I don’t even know what is happening, but I am wrapped up in the arms of a stranger that I didn’t even knew existed.
My leg hurt, but I knew it would pass. Hell, if I wasn’t thinking about it, I don’t think I would have noticed my knee was shattered. I thought about what was going on, the moments of the bloodbath that shocked me.
Blue dying in front of my eyes, Alphie taking a beating just like me, and Sullivan running as fast as he could with the former in toe. I didn’t know where they went, but I just hoped that they were safe.
For now, I was just going to have to deal with the mystery man for now.
His exterior looked rough, but something told me that he was nothing like his outsides. Obviously if he went under the radar this long for me, that meant he had to be a quiet one. Maybe there was more to him, or maybe there wasn’t anything to him that I needed to know, but one thing that I did know was that he was sweet. He was willing to step in and save me in my time of need, and while I hated being a damsel in distress, my life is still my own, and that, I couldn’t thank him enough for.
I feel like we have been running for ages, and before I knew it, we stopped. And yet, I was still in the mans arms.
”Y’know, you can put me down whenever you like.” I said as I realized that we had slowed down. ”Thank you though for saving me.” words like that didn’t come easy for me, because too many times I had always been treated poorly by men.
"No problem, just thought you could use the help."
"I did. I wouldnt have made it out alive if it wasnt for you."
But maybe this was a sign that some men could be different.
I didn’t know, and I honestly, didn’t care.
However, if he helped me, I would be able to help him.
”I don’t know what I can give you--- er…” I paused for a moment, realizing I didn’t even know his name. ”Do you even want to exchange names? Or?” I asked brazenly because that was the right thing to do. I knew that much. ”Hanaa.” I offered to him, even if he didn’t want to give me his.
No need to give me anything. You've got enough to deal with." "Ike." "That's my name, Ike."
My leg still felt weird, but after he rested me near the air lock, I realized that I would have to do the rest of it myself. That much was understandable. Luckily, I could see Sullivan and Alphie in tow.
However, I knew being kind was going to be a task I would never get used too, but if I was going to die, then so be it.
Might as well start now.
And then he was gone.
Ike had dissapeared somewhere in the cargo hold, and I had no interest in trying to find him. I at the least was pretty bruised.
Sullivan had helped me up and into the airlock, which meant I could at least rest easy. Blue was gone, which saddened me a bit, but that was the way of the games. I didnt have much to add after that, except that I knew I needed to rest this leg and get some first aid applied before something went awry.
The smell had hit me even through the weird helmet that was around my head, and I knew that there was something here we could use, however, first I needed time to gain my barings because the last thing I needed was to over exert myself for something I could have helped. The pain would pass, it always did.
I wished Ike could have stayed longer with us, going at it alone didnt seem wise, but if that is what he wished, then so be it. I wasnt here to stop him from doing what he thought was right, just like he wasnt here to tell me that I was an idiot for letting the girl from eleven fuck up my leg real good.
It was all about taking deep breathes now and gathering whatever we needed. "Are you guys alright?" I said before realizing that we truly would never be so. "We lost Blue out there."
It hit me hard, but I knew that I couldnt be sad. He wouldnt want that for us. He would want us to come out of this swinging like our lives depended on it, and I knew he would be with us in spirit. It was a second hand thought though, and I knew I needed to focus on the now. "Were battered and bruised, but we need to survive for him." I give a light smile before observing our surroundings. "What is this place?" The smell of metal almost excruciating now.
This would be the first task of a really long day.
That was for sure.
